Krishna Kedar and his idea

After looking through several proposals that came in over the past couple of months from across the city, the Mumbai Commission for Art, Culture and Music finally found two of them to be worthy of display. While the committee members liked the two proposals that were submitted earlier this month, they have certain reservations about the proposed location and will have a discussion about it at the next meeting on June 6.

The ideas came from H West ward and both are proposed to be installed near Otters Club at Carter Road. One of the proposals has been submitted by actor-artist Lekha Washington. Her idea involves a large sculpture of the moon, whose different phases can be seen from different angles. Based on her proposal, the moon will be mounted at a height of 25-32 feet on top of metal poles, which would be hidden behind trees to make it seem as though it is floating in the sky. Washington said her idea of the sculpture was inspired by her installation of a burning helium moon at Burning Man Festival last year. "I was excited to use the trees as part of the installation.
